The latest headset from the CORSAIR HS series is the HS70 Wireless model, which is able to pick up all the good stuff from the HS60 and also integrate wireless capabilities. The low-latency 2.4GHz wireless signal is advertised to be able to deliver on a distance up to 12 meters, we’ve got virtual 7.1 surround thanks to the supplied software, but is also plug-and-play compatible with Sony’s Playstation 4 console. The unit can be picked up in either “Carbon” or “White” themes, while the packaging does feature a similar box art as we have seen before:
